There is something really satisfying about painting. At the end of the day the arms and legs are all stretched to exhaustion, the lungs full of that paint scent, the skin has taken on the ethnicity of whatever color was inside of the paint can. But then when it is all done, food and drink never tasted so good, and a shower is a bit like a luxury spa. Enjoy. I need to get down to it around here as well.
I trust you made it safe. Best wishes for a little vacation mixed in with the paint.
